Team Hoopla/Best of Both — comprised of team members Jeff Hume, Ryan Oughtred, Tove Pashkowski and Jayme Smithers — were the quickest group of four competitors in the annual two-day Appleton Rum Peak to Valley Race ending Saturday (Feb. 5).
The epic course — stretching from the top of Whistler Mountain to the Creekside base — was shortened slightly due to conditions on Friday but ran its full length on Saturday.
Team Hoopla was also tops in the combined age 149-and-under category with a time of 20 minutes, 15.01 seconds. Winning teams in other age categories were Toes First (150 to 174), Swiss Movement (175 to 199), Barry the Rooster (200 to 224), the Legacy Cruisers (225 to 249) and the Wild Eastern Flyers (250-plus).
Liz Thompson (4:29.08) of Barry the Rooster was the fastest female racer on Friday, while Oughtred (4:06.29) was the quickest male. On Saturday, Phil Beauregard claimed the men's fastest time (5:37.76) for Team Spirit and Swiss Movement's Janine Linder Joris was the fastest female (6:04.65).
